THE BENEDETTI FOUNDATION RESIDENCY SESSIONS

TUESDAY 17TH SEPTEMBER 2024

4.30 – 6.00PM @ Selkirk High School, Music Dept

 CLASS TEACHER SESSION

 As part of the Benedetti Foundation’s Residency Sessions in the Scottish Borders, there will be the opportunity for a free professional development session for primary classroom teachers, teaching assistants, trainee teachers, or anyone responsible for delivering music in the classroom. This session is aimed at educators who are non-specialist musicians and would like to gain more confidence and develop skills in delivering classroom music.

The workshop will be delivered by Head of Creative Learning at the Benedetti Foundation, Lucy Drever, and percussionist Calum Huggan who will be delivering workshops during the Residency.

The session will offer practical ideas and suggestions to help you feel comfortable with teaching music. We will cover topics including singing in the classroom, body percussion activities, creating soundscapes, using graphic scores, the percussion trolly in a creative way and embedding music into the curriculum. We will work with teachers to develop ideas for teaching music in an easy to access way for all and leave you with a bank of resources to support your work.

This workshop is free.
